Job Description

Job Title: Chief of Staff (LA / US time zone preferred)
Location: Remote (US timezone overlap preferred)
Employment Type: Full Time - Independent Contractor

We are building three creative ventures at once, and we need someone who can help keep our team focused, organized, and moving forward.

This is a unique opportunity that sits across a digital rights agency, a cultural coffee brand, and a rising dance music label. We're looking for a Chief of Staff who can bring clarity to chaos, connect the dots across projects, and help our team work smarter.

What You Will Do

  • Assist leadership teams in coordinating cross-company projects

  • Keep the team aligned on priorities and ensure nothing falls through the cracks

  • Build and maintain systems using Asana, Airtable, Discord, Google Suite, and other tools

  • Support communication across teams, track initiatives, and surface blockers

  • Contribute to marketing efforts that connect artists with their audiences

  • Learn the ins and outs of music entrepreneurship from experienced founders

  • Improve our ways of working by introducing structure where needed

Who You Are

  • 2–4 years of experience in startups, operations, or fast-moving creative teams

  • Curious about music, creators, and systems; love learning how things work

  • Emotionally intelligent and people-oriented—great communicator and collaborator

  • Organized but adaptable; can thrive in messy, evolving environments

  • Proactive problem-solver who spots issues before they happen

  • Familiar (or able to quickly learn) tools like Google Sheets, Airtable, Discord, Mailchimp, Asana

  • Comfortable using AI tools and eager to explore how they can enhance workflows

  • Self-starter who thrives in a role where you help design how we work—not just follow it

Perks of the Job

  • Remote & Flexible : Work from anywhere with strong communication and accountability

  • Team Retreats : We meet a few times a year in places like Palm Springs or Mexico City

  • Diverse Work : Engage with music, branding, digital rights, and creator partnerships

  • Meaningful Impact : You’ll shape how our companies operate and scale

  • Learning-Focused : Work closely with experienced operators and entrepreneurs

  • Strong Incentives : Opportunity to participate in performance-based bonus plans

Chief of Staff: First 90 Days Framework

This role is designed to evolve. The first 90 days are about establishing foundations and amplifying the team’s impact. Here's what that looks like:

Days 1–30: Learn & Listen

  • Understand each company’s mission, values, and business model

  • Build relationships across leadership and key team members

  • Master all internal systems and tools

  • Identify early areas where you can contribute value

  • Success indicators: trusted relationships, system fluency, and early wins identified

Days 31–60: Diagnose & Design

  • Spot communication or execution inefficiencies

  • Build frameworks and systems for tracking work across companies

  • Proactively support leadership and anticipate needs

  • Integrate helpful AI tools into workflows

  • Success indicators: improved systems, proactive execution, and strategic involvement

Days 61–90: Build & Begin

  • Transition from executor to thought partner

  • Lead at least one major initiative

  • Scale your impact through sustainable systems

  • Contribute to strategic planning and team development

  • Success indicators: independent leadership, systems sustainability, and growth support

Cultural Values

  • Learn, Master, Teach, Release : We grow by taking on challenges, mastering them, and teaching others

  • Momentum Through Small Wins : Prioritize fast, achievable wins that build energy

  • Respect Autonomy, Foster Collaboration : Each company is unique; your systems should help them thrive without forcing uniformity

  • Design for Scale : We're not here to maintain the status quo—we're building for growth

What Success Looks Like After 90 Days

You’ve become indispensable not by controlling information, but by enabling clarity and progress. The leadership team operates at a higher level because you’ve taken complexity off their plate. You’ve helped build better systems that support creativity, coordination, and scale.

This role isn’t about being the center of attention—it’s about making everyone else more effective at transforming culture and the music industry for the better.
